For those who are confused this is either the most expensive or 2nd most expensive thing in tf2, over a few thousand dollars. Only thing that competes with it is the golden frying pan. If you wonder how one virtual item can cost so much, just remember tf2 has a WHOLE ECONOMY set around it, with certain items set as currency. It's ridiculous. Trading is not a fun buisness, so I only dabble in it every now and then.
